Freshwater Nano Tank-Help!

Pygmy corys really need to be in atleast 6 IMO.
I think you could get away with
3 sparkling gourami
6 pygmy corys
and 5 small shoaling fish but i wouldnt go for the rainbows.

Thats great, thanks for your help.
Would Rummynose Rasbora be OK as the shoaling fish?

Ive never even heard of them so cant help but anything under 1" thats not to active should be fine.

Glad kizno agrees, makes me feel better about doubting you having the blue-eyes.

I don`t know anything about the sparkling gouramis to be honest apart from them being small, so I don`t know what the general temperament is like. Would they maybe go ok with dwarf emerald rasbora or galaxy rasbora?
I`ve just got 6 of the galaxy rasboras and the red colouring is really bright and lovely

The problem is that im not willing to pay the hefty £4.25 each Celestial Pearl Danio but im not sure I can find the Dwarf Emerald Rasbora. I will have to visit all my LFS, there is around 20 or so fish shops I can go to so wish me luck!

MY local fish shop has some lovely Yunnanilus cruciatus/Vietnamese Hovering Zebra Loach and they recommended these for my tank. Aparently , these stay to about 3.5cm and I just wanted to ask if these are suitable, I admit I fell in love with these!

The journal will be here

6 of the emerald dwarf rasbora or the mosquito chilli rasbora would be ok in there

Just an interesting note I figured out, the Emerald Dwarf Rasbora, is infact a danio!
